    There’s a saying I have for yugioh after playing this game for 10 years plus. “Sometimes it’s just not your format.”. It’s that simple. It can be the card pool, the strategies, the banlist, the general complexities of the game and the aspect that regardless of how hard you deck theory, play test, and even if you purchase the meta cards, when you draw the first hand your still under the rule of randomized variants of hands. Some players get the god hands, others get the bricks.

    One thing I was considering could be a factor was the prevalence of this reportedly format-solving spreadsheet, being an essential part of seemingly every known pro player’s prep. I don’t want to understate how useful of a resource it is / how much time went into making it, but I don’t remember a format where everyone was so spreadsheet-pilled during testing.
    I understand why - there are such an insane number of lines with the FS cards, and the format has such a small margin for error that you need to navigate those lines correctly. But I do wonder if some of the “lesser known” players looked at the spreadsheet and were able to find exploits to the lines everyone else was going for + come up with some combo patterns of their own that skirt around the usual “where to handtrap” flowchart, rather than just absorbing the information.

      Not really? This NAWCQ's format is under a mostly Deck Theory guise, as if you teched to see Fiendsmith Snake Eyes and you don't sit across from it because a lot of players did not have the deck, you are completely hosed for doing so. Fiendsmith being so inaccessable caused the format to warp into "Get Good" or play decks that don't play Yu-Gi-Oh (Tenpai, Stun Variants). Pak is not wrong for wanting a closed format as a competitor, but this one was anything but closed because of how Fiendsmith's rarity is showing out, these are straight not accessable to most players. ~60% of top cut is Fiendsmith Engine, but that's just the engine.

Understandable after putting in this amount of work. The second part reads that he keeps going to get it done next time. This a motivational post everyone can slice a piece of for himself. This is not complaining!
    Pak is very communicative with his oppinion about the state of the game. True. BUT if it's about self reflection not many players come close to Pak. He will analyse this and try to be better next time. No doubt. You may like him or not but please differentiate and try to understand the person when you want to critizise someone. Thanks :)

      I stand by what I said and it doesn't take away from players who topped. More reliance on dice rolls, non-engine, amount of handtraps and rediciolus one card combos lowers the skill gap between players, meaning less skilled players (not saying the top cut players are) win more frequently. And this is my opinion based on playing this format, seeing results, decks and 2 days of feature matches.

    I’m just unhappy about the fact I played against Fiendsmith Snake Eyes for 7 consecutive matches day 1 - 8 out of 9 of my matches was this deck day 1.
    If I won, I played against the best deck. If I lost, I played against the best deck. Wanted to shoot myself at the end of it all. 😅

    honestly, as someone who really dislikes the current format i can see why people wouldn't wanna play, with snake eye lasting for almost 8 months now (i think at least correct me if i'm wrong) and being an annoying hand trap spamming deck. not to mention the fear of the deck not getting hit on the next list i feel like there will easily be hundreds of people quitting just to get away from this terrible format that has lasted way too long.

    The fact that top players got left out of top cut, was the only healthy fact of the event. If all pros got a spot, something would smell fishy... And believe me as I say it, it did for the previous events. We also heard ranting about "more spots on the top cut" by known content creators. All in all 2600 players stand for 2600 times 25 random factors that could take you out any minute. Shifters? Locks? Bad hands - good hands? Bad decks? Legal stallers, as you pointed out? You name it.
    The other good news is that we get to see the first EU event in a long time.
    I expect more Bystials and decks that incorporate them at the EUWCQ.
    I expect of the banlist to address stupidly overpowered consistency. 2 flamberges 2 prometheans are too much 16 combo starters + 4 to 8 new ones are too much, on the other hand, straight bans would be too much of an overkill. Also, give us back some counter strategies. Magnamhut semi? Called by semi?
    Last but not least, reprints, and enough time for the fun player to utilize them. Good engines - strategies are Floodgated behind the 100$ mark. So a fun player that needs 2-3-4 of them is condemned not to get them. Drop them at quarter the price, or less, let them roam free for 6 months and let people have fun.

    I wouldn't say a format is not skill full because the known players didn't perform well because the players that beat them had to be skillful to do so, in a way that is taking away from the hard work those players had to put in, in order to play well. Obviously, the known players put a lot of work into the game, and it show, but maybe this just wasn't their time to shine. Plenty of more matches for them to shine in throughout the format.

There was more than one deck that made it to top cut. Under your logic, the other 33 decks that made to top cut stood no chance at winning, even though they prolly beat multiple snake eyes on their way to end make top cut.

Smith-Eyes and other Snake-Eyes builds/pilots are basically on auto pilot with the way the deck works. There isn’t any crazy deep tech or skill testing plays in Smith-Eyes it’s an on the rails spreadsheet deck that stuffs 20 non engine. Nothing is more frustrating than for a top player to spend weeks testing a format, preparing for the best deck, and then losing to a guy who was misplaying but because their deck is just that much better than anything else it doesn’t matter

      @jtalkalot19 I'm also making comments based on personal experience. I strategize for Snake-Eyes because it is the best deck and played the majority of YCS's. When playing rogue, it involves a lot of strategizing to play against it, and it takes away my build against other decks. Very true what you mentioned that those other decks most likely had to beat Snake-Eyes along the way. At the end of the day, which deck won it, though, and the last 10 YCS's. Overall IMO feels like an oppressive meta, and i don't have to play in it so I opted not too for time being 😅

Tenpai reached top 8, but they met their quota on how many smith-eyes they are allowed to beat in a tournament and can no longer do so.

Probably...but i dont think anyone is making enough money playing Yu-Gi-Oh for it to be their profession lol. Theres no denying Jesse is a great player, but as mentioned by others...doesnt mean someone like myself for example who doesn't make it to big tournaments unless they're semi local can't beat them...pak is the most overrated of them all. Sure he has an understanding of the game and people praise him because he only so started playing maybe 5 years ago...but his arrogant personality makes his content shit, and every time he under performs its s big rant about how bad the format is lol. It makes me truly happy that there are people out there winning who don't have highly recognized names... people talk about how the game sucks...how it's dying...well then let these other people have their chance instead of the same couple mentions and maybe people will be inspired to step up and try...

    Ghouki Gumblar 2.0! Why so much fear to say? Just said! It's a dice roll format.
    Two weeks ago people wanted to discuss Oak being hit or Beatrice. Wouldn't make a difference! The moment Konami printed those stupid TCG exclusives i knew that they wouldn't call back on letting "circus on fire". We the TCG players are Konami slot machine 2.0, they realize that after the pandemic format and the garbage master duel (the game is fine, but they promise would be a TCG/OCG simulator, which is not). And btw how many tier 0 formats have we had these last two years? Tear Ishizu, Kashtira, Snake-eye and now Fiendsmith SE. My god! We start the season in YCS São Paulo with Kashtira format, SE tier 0 and ending on Fiendsmith SE tier 0. Three in a season!
    Well that's what the pro-players asked isn't? "Diverse formats are not good for the game" "In tier 0 you see who is the best player". Well, i guess if you call for the rain is better be ready to deal with mud too.

Not every format is for everyone 100% - but at least in "harder" formats good duelist get rewarded and win more - which in my oppinion matters a lot for the competetive / tournament side.
